silence is golden? i'm thinking more like deadly.

she's the one he dreams about,
the one he can't get out of his head.
the one he prays to be his,
each night as he lays in his bed,
and he wonders if she'll ever notice him.

he's the one she writes about,
in each and every song.
the one she wishes was hers.
he could've been hers all along.
if she had only known...

when love is silent,
hearts are slowly broken.
feelings concealed
slowly tear at the seams.
words left unspoken,
suffocating dreams.

ever so connected.

make our racing hearts
beat in rhyme.
let your ocean eyes
connect with mine.
under these stars,
please take my heart.
with your hands,
help me stand.
let this promise we make
guide every step we take.
take my hand tonight.
let our love take flight.
we'll prove we can make it.
forever, you and i.

giving up, not giving in.

you take one step.
your heart sinks deeper in your chest.
your eyes grow tired.
your heart is such a mess.
you realize now,
you'll never make it.
now all thats left to do is fake it.
so put on that smile,
and let the lies do the rest.

the she apparatus.

lies composed in your mind,
written down on paper,
sealed with a plastic kiss.
i never once questioned you
or anything you said.
but now i wonder,
if i'm going under,
while you've still got your head?

cause i'm underwater,
but you're still breathing.

maybe its the apparatus
that you have around your neck.
is she the thing
that keepes you going,
while all this time
i thought it was me?
i keep falling backwards,
but you just stay ahead.

cause i'm underwater,
but you're still breathing.
